It was on loan to Yorkshire (along with examples from Manchester, Kent, Exeter, Oxford etc) for Sheffield Supertram replacement services as they are doing plenty of track renewal at the moment, the ousted Enviro400's (19641-19656) from Dundee (Tayway 73) recently displaced by new Volvo B5LH/Enviro400 MMC have moved to Sheffield for this purpose (I managed to photo most of them yesterday when I was there)

ta

Three at least have reverted to original marks, I photographed 17201 as V201MEV in Liverpool the other day https://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/18466335131 and Alan Sansbury has caught 17176 & 17325 back as V176MEV & X391NNO https://www.flickr.com/photos/28011506@N04/18435909636 https://www.flickr.com/photos/28011506@N04/18202317588

The rest retain the 'cherished' plates as far as I know, certainly 17271 & 17283 seen the other day still with them

Been told that the deckers that have their original registrations back on are all Manchester bound. At least 4 went to Manchester today for Parklife.

Presumably when their replacements arrive at Gillmoss? speaking of which, are some of the Chorley Scania's still due here when they themselves are replaced on the 125?

Cheers
